The first is pretty self-explanatory. For the first lesson, students basically will be asked to follow the intructions on the 'your first task' page. Perhaps you should run through this with them. Even prior to this, you should go through the Wikispace with the class, outlining the key features and showing them how to find resources.
For the second lesson, all you will be doing is reading the play yourself with the class. You should assign students to roles so that they feel as if they are a part of the play and more likely to pay attention. Keeping in mind the tasks which have been set, feel free to stop the play at any moment to add comments or highlight key points which will be useful for them in the future. Once you get through a substantial amount, allow about ten minutes at the end of the lesson for the students to complete the task in the 'lesson 2' page. Also, introduce the study guide questions to them and encourage them to do the questions for homework and to submit them to you.
For the third lesson, the students will be working independently to research the characters of Macbeth and Banquo. A page on the Wiki is provided for each character. The students should look at each page and the resources provided in order to make a decision about which essay question they might tackle. This way, students feel involved in their learning.
As far as resources go, a bibligraphy is provided at the bottom of each page.
